Overview

EMA Ribbon MACD enters when ribbon alignment, optional MACD zero or signal crosses, volume, smart-money, and multi-timeframe filters agree, then exits with percentage stop loss and take profit. Settings change EMA lengths, volatility-based MACD parameters, signal quality, daily trade limits, risk percent, and minimum bars between trades. It does not state repainting or lookahead behavior.
